Function Room Hire
Hiring Information
Function Room:
In 2021 During the second Lockdown we completely refurbished the Function room.
The room is now a bright airy space perfect for a variety of occasions.
The room itself can be rearranged in a few ways, if you wish to keep all the tables and chairs, it can comfortably seat 40 people, if you wish to remove them all, keeping space for a dance floor you can get up to 80 standing. If you wish you can also have a mixture of the two to suit your needs.
Decorations:
You can decorate the room as you wish, we just ask that nothing is stuck to our newly painted walls, however please feel free to pin things into the wood cladding.
We also request that you refrain from using confetti on tables, and using party poppers as they stain the wooden tables and floors once wet.
We have contact details for various companies that supply decorations if you so wish.
There is also a 75” TV which can be used to play a slide show of photos (jpg format) please provide these on a USB stick.
